>remove numpad>nothing changesWhat use do numpad have for games? it's the select button for PC.
>>740179749All roguelikes need a numpad.And when emulating old nintendo or arcade games, numpad feels much better than IJKL or equivalent.
>>740179749>it's the select button for PClow quality bait
>remove mobileposters>this thread goes poof
>>740179749you can play grim fandango entirely with the numpad
i gave my fullsize keyboard to my mom, and i miss it so bad
>>740179749I need it for blender
Not having separate keys for the function buttons fucking sucks, always go full size.
>>740179749If you emulate old consoles, many had numpads. They're not actually used that much, but it's handy to have a direct equivalent.
>>740179749Quickbuy binds
>>740179749the only usecase I had for them was GTA IV trainer stuff, or trainers in general tend to use them. or for aircraft driving, but you can rebind those.to be fair it's never been more useless, TKL is comfy, makes the desk spatious and doesn't get in the way. If you still need those I'd recommend left side numpad keyboards
I use them whenever I can, usually for entering numbers in keypads or whatever. Plus they are vital for roguelikes.>>740180941This.
Mouse + left hand numpad is the optimal control scheme
>>740179749>removes numbpad>pays the same or higher priceYou got jewed.
>>740179749I can get wanting a numpad if you do alot of number inputs on your keyboard, I don't really so I got a keychron 85. it's quite nice
>Silent hill f has camera controls bound to numpadWho else /antedeluviangamer/ here?
>>740179749I used to play 5123 as my wasd
>>740181351SOVL
>>740179749for entering my credit card number to buy the battlepass
>>740181036Same. it's incomprehensible to most of /v/ that people actually use their PC for things other than just fucking around.
>>740182104this looks sick, wrong, and useful.
>>740179749I use it like daily bro I hate keyboards without it
>>740179749troons cut off their numpad just like they cut off their dicks lmfao
>work as a teacher>want to put in 25 grades without errors>no numpad>why did I buy this shit? I don't even use the space for anything else
I want one of those massive keyboards with 300+ keys like they used to have in ATC towers and Russian nuclear power plants
>>740181243There isn't a single pre-NES home console game worth playing.
>>740180828Playing cdda without a dpad would be miserable.Inb4 playing cdda is miserable in itself.
>>740183724I can do all that on my Apple ®iPhone™.
>>740182104Where's the Print Screen Button?
>>740183852excuse you i'll have you know i kept my numpad AND my dick
>>740183246Wait wtf do people really play fully 3D games with a fucking keyboard??
For me it's this bad boy
>>740182104Yeah, I have no idea why this isn't more common. As weird as it looks, it's very comfortable this way. I use this kinda setup with a TKL + separate numpad though because I find it more flexible this way as I can save space whenever I don't really need the numpad. Also the Q12 was sold out anyway when I was looking at it kek
>>740181351Based csfag.
>>740183961Just click power and volume down at the same time? That's the problem with PCs, you need a button for every little thing. Going from PC to phone is like going from Ultima IV to Final Fantasy VII kek.
>>740181351Reminds me of when I cut out Yugioh card pictures to make my own cards
>>740179749Is OP still shilling those half sided shit keyboards?
>>740184082>41% keyboard
>>740179749I need the numpad because my gayming pc is also my work pc. Only literal welfare niggers and the mentally-ill don't use numpads.

>>740179749Mechwarrior and a bunch of flight games use it for POV looking if you don't have a hat switch.OP is also a nigger.
>>740179749I cant play sid meiers pirates! Without it
I use it for my favourite platformers.
>>740179749Can't spam voicelines in D2 without it.
>>740179749anything with lots of keybinds (simulators, mmos), older games like roguelikes.if you don't find use for numpad, play some actual pc games
>>740182104>AI-generating an image of the keyboard instead of using the actual pictureWhat the fuck is wrong with you?
>>740183943I have that paper...
I hate that there are no good cheap keyboards with numpad.
>>740179749if you're left handed you're more likely to use your mouse in the left hand since that arm is more dexterious, so moving in games lands on the arrow keys.numpad is priceless in this case because its the difference between having three nearby keys and eight.
>>740181036>I need itNo we don't
>>740179749extremely useful for one handed rpg maker gameplay
>>740179749The select button was used in almost every game as an alternate menu and after it was "removed" they just used a new meme button for it.
>>740179749I fucking love my numpadI'm pissed that all the new keyboards are mini girl keyboards because zoomies don't want the fullsize anymore
>>740179749It's faster for entering numbers, retard
>>740186986Because it's fucking useless>but-It's fucking useless. I haven't used a numb pad once in my entire life, and the only people who still do are boomers
>>740182104Give me this but also with another numpad on the right side as well.
>>740179749I use the numpad every day, it's the best way to input numbers.
>>740187086I use it all the time though
>>740179749making vidya porn in blenderit's also comfy for emulating older SNES, GBC, GBA games etc.
>>740187184>I use itI know you do
>>740179749I've always used arrow keys rather than WASD for movement, so I need the numpad for other programmable buttons in reach.
>>740187086It's useful for entering numbers, shitskin faggot. If you ever had a real job you would know that.
>>740179749Every single key there has a bind I use in tf2. I also prefer typing numbers with the numpad.I see no reason to get rid of it, I don't feel like I need more space and I feel perfectly comfortable even after long sessions with how I sit + position my arms.
>>740179749it's what i bind my gmod contraption controls to
>>740179749A keyboard without a numpad is simply not a real keyboard.

>>740187567So true xister!
What advantage does removing the numpad give me?I use it often enough that I doubt it's worth the three extra inches of space.
>>740179749I played team fortress classic and CS with numpad
>>740187602>I NEED TWO DUPLICATE NUMBER KEYS BECAUSE…I JUST NEED THEM OKAY?!?!?!
>>740187798Only huge amount of extra mouse space, that's all.
>>740187845Do you actually not understand that the numpad enters numbers faster than the line of number keys? Are you that brown and retarded?

how do you even configure ur numb pad as shortcuts? like mute just the game, open calculator, notepad anything?
I put Excel macros there and koikatsu use them as well
>>740179749More use when you didn't have mouse control.
>>740187845when you have numpad on your mouse, the keyboard numpad just becomes decoration

>>740187927>>740188026>the numpad enters numbers faster than the line of number keysYes, they are attached to the super switches which make them super duper responsiver than the set of numbers directly on top of your keyboard.

>>740179749I never need a numpad until I need one and I miss having it.Though I would like something like >>740186540 because doing excel sheets and stuff like that is incredibly annoying with the numpad on the right.

>>740179749I use it a lot for heavily modded skyrim. Every other mod needs a keybind for weird obscure actions I won't need to do in combat, so I tuck them away on the numpad. Plus I type numbers out way better on that layout.
>>740188707>snap the tendonsIf you are hurting yourself to reach any part of your keyboard you need to either use a different finger or get that checked out. Very comfortable for me and has never been an issue>remove potential for more hotkeysYou can make more custom hotkeys than you can even dream of before running out.

pretty rare that I actually use my numpad but when I need to use it I really fucking need to use it
If I'm paying for a keyboard, I want the full keyboard. Simple as. I'm not paying more to get less keyboard.
>>740189120When?
>>740188983>>740189056It's funny because it is true.I have seen trannies online use keyboards that don't even have ESC and F1 - F12. Like nigger how do you play anything with those???
You can type the pass codes with the numpad in deus ex 1, so I'm not interested in TKLs, would ruin the immersion.

>>740190926I can tolerate computer keyboards having this thing because i've seen my coworkers still using numpad to put numbers on funny digital sheets. I cant tolerate having this thing on my laptop. For some reason instead of just making the keys bigger, or put them in the center like what macbook did in the past couple of years, laptop manufacturers love to put keypad on their 15.6 laptop product.
